Our daughter had a great time! The front desk staff was really friendly and good with kids. I hadn't climbed in a couple years, but they were understanding and passed me on the belay check even though I needed to be reminded about a couple things (once I remembered, it clicked). They were chill about me belaying our daughter (who's about to turn 2), and my wife helping her climb by taking some weight off. Overall, very nice staff with common sense and good heart. The gym is really good, especially for Manassas area. From what I could see, they had a big toprope climbing area, a big sport climbing area with overhead climbs (used to love them when I was younger) and a big bouldering area. It's almost as big as something like Earth Treks, but the customer service is way better here. I don't climb often anymore, but whenever my daughter wants to climb again, we'll be back!

The Sterling location isn't as big as some of the other climbing gyms, but it is plenty for a climbing session. I will say, the one issue of this location is that since it's a little small, the bouldering section is a little cramped in spacing compared to their other location in Alexandria. Not a a big problem at all, but can be during peak hours. Their staff here are very nice and friendly as well. Always a good group of people being welcoming to new guests and members. The facility itself is also well kept and clean.

I tell myself that making time and partnering up is better motivation and will ensure that I actually make the time to work on my fitness. Forget all that. I come for the eye candy. Plus, I lie to myself and imagine that if I keep up with climbing, I'll also have a ridiculously ripped, lean, toned body with a perfect V-shaped torso. No, don't burst my little dream bubble. Fair warning. Until you obtain a membership card (which took us roughly three weeks from signing up), you'll have to deal with the stench by the front desk. Our suspicious: the stack of rental climbing shoes that have been worn by countless people. Fortunately, I can now hold my breath or breathe through my mouth as I navigate past the worst of it. Once you're back into the main part of the gym, it's much easier to breathe. With plenty of bouldering, huge tall walls for belay climbing or top roping (which I still haven't experienced myself), and a couple of auto-belays, there has always been ample room to find a wall to climb. Plus, membership benefits include free yoga classes, a significant discount on climbing gear (which, believe me, I looked... it's never on sale anywhere), and a huge benefit on pricing for classes. The staff here seem well-informed and helpful, and it's always been easy enough to hunt someone down for questions about the gym, equipment, or suggestions on how to improve. After about a month, I can legitimately say that I'm pretty addicted. Whether it's on the climbing itself, or the view... well, jury's still out.

This is a nice little climbing gym. It won't 'wow' you, but considering that the next nearest…read moreclimbing gyms are in Frederick, MD and Sterling, VA, this is really good for Martinsburg. The staff was friendly and they had some interesting routes. The small size is a downside, and also their hours are limited. On weekdays they're open in the evening. And on weekends they're open from noon - 5:00 p.m. Also, there are a few ways they could improve. First, most routes don't have the finish marked, so we were left wondering where the ending was or if it's a top-finish climb. The walls are sparce- they could fit more routes in. And the walls are pretty worn out- lots of chipped paint and chalk residue. That being said, I had a fun time, the staff was friendly, and the price was fair. I'll probably go again if I'm in the area.

The Facility: Nice and spacious building. Has a nice variety of walls for you to choose from (Cave, overhang and moon board). They also have a small little fitness area with dumbbells, barbells and some cardio equipment as well. The mats are are well cushioned too, to catch your falls and there are plenty of cubbies to store your gear and be put out the way. The Routes/Grades: Their routes are on the v-scale and were somewhat accurate to the grades from what I've seen. I saw a mix of grades that I did and didn't agree with, and I can see this being a little hard for some beginner climbers. But, my biggest problem with this gym is that the holds here are all old and dirty. For the most part, the whole gym was kind of dirty and didn't looked well kept. For some of the routes I was on, the holds didn't make it enjoyable as dirty holds left me slipping off my feet. They were quite dusty and full of rubber shavings and the whole gym didn't look well kept at all. The Staff: Staff here are very friendly! They were helpful with any questions I had and were respectful. Overall, a 3/5. Was quite disappointed with my experience here at Vertical. For the amount it cost for a day pass, I would look elsewhere like Movement or Sportrock.

I like that there are water stations at the beginning of each site. The instructors are all friendly and helpful.

The zip line is pretty fun, even for adults. The staff are pretty helpful in explaining how things work and assist in putting on the harness and taking it off. The slide is also really fun, you get a mat to slide on and go down head-first on what seems a 90 degree plummet and land on an inflatable pillow. One thing I did see people struggling with is the anchoring point of the harness to the rock climbing rig. You gotta have some strength to properly rig it and kids often need assistance. In some of the reviews I read prior to visiting, people said it gets really busy on the weekends and the lines can really put a damper on the experience. We chose to go on a weekday and there were no lines.
